"I'm here, dada." Sia said smiling, while walking towards the living room and her friends following her.
Harry: "Hey! My Sun. Where were you, I was so desperate to meet my sweet little daughter." He said by opening his arms towards his daughter, Sia.
Sia came to her father and hugged him. And said:
" How are you, dada? I missed you a lot." Looking at her father, she paused and added gesturing and pointing the index finger towards her brother, Harry's son, Rish;
"This son of yours, bully me a lot in your absence. I hate him."
She said with a cute pout.
Rish narrowed his eyes towards Sia; and said;
"I think father's presence or absence doesn't matter for that." he said with a grin.
Harry: "Rish, don't you dare trouble my heartthrob. I'll sue you." With a pretending angry tone, he said to Rish.
Rish: "Ohh! Really dad? You will sue the super cop and taking whose help, your daughter, the soon to be lawyer. I'm ready for the prosecution." He said with a smirk.
Seeing those gestures and hearing the sarcasm, Sia pouted once more and said;
"You won't be able to save yourself, if I'll be against you Mr. Rish Watson." She said with a frown.
"But, who said I'm against you. You are in my team already." he said to his sister.
"Alright! Now stop all this. Sia we are also there. You just love your dada, not your mum." Came voice from the elder lady who pouted slightly.
"Not at all, Mum how can I forget, my sweetheart." Sia said with a smile to her mother.
Harry patted her daughter Sia, gestured her to meet all the members and so she proceeded.
Beside her father, her uncle was there, so she greeted him and went towards the beautiful ladies sitting on the couch.
And her friends too greeted her father, uncle and Rish and followed her. Harry and John went outside for some task.

Harry used to call her daughter "SUN" as when she was born, a prophecy was declared by their family saint about her existence and about her future. Which clearly stated that she will be like the Sun and will shine bright like the SUN in her life. And it was not just a statement but the family experienced it personally. *

Elena: "Angel daredevil, I missed you a lot." She said while hugging Sia as she moved towards them and Sia hugged her back and patted her back and said;
"I missed you too, my chipmunk."
After, Elena, Sia moved towards her mum and said;
"How have you been mommy?" She said while hugging her mother tightly.
Sophia: "I'm good, dear. How are you?"
Sia: "I'm awesome as always." she said while raising her hands dramatically with a smile.
Rish who followed her and now was sitting next to their mother said;
"Obviously, you are the sister of an awesome brother, you have to be awesome." he said casually with a smile.
Sia: "Who said you are awesome. You are literally awful. And I hate you." She said with a pout.
Rish: "I love you too, dear little cub." he said with a smirk.
Sia ignored him and proceeded towards her aunt and said;
"How are you aunt Bella?"
Bella: "What can happen to me? I'm good." she said casually while Sia just responded her with a harmless smile.
Sia's friends greeted her whole family, while Bella said to her daughter;
"Elena, go to your room and study."
Elena with a pitiful look, said;
"No mom, I want to stay with sister Sia."
Bella: "I said, go to your room." she said with a serious tone and Elena moved towards her room, while Sia felt bad for her cousin and assured her with a slight nod.
Rish clenching his fingers in a fist, was going to say something to his aunt, when his mother gestured him not to speak anything.
Sia: "I'll go freshen up." she said and moved towards her room with her friends. And Rish also got up to move towards his room.
Sophia: "Alright! Go and freshen up. I'll go tell the chefs to arrange the dinner for you and your friends." she said from back while Sia was on stairs.
Sia's friends said in unison; " Thanks aunt Sophia." And in response Sophia smiled.

Rish went to his room while Sia went to her room with her friends.
Neil: "I really wonder, how many versions do you have girl." he said looking at Sia with a thoughtful look.
Sarah: "Exactly, you are so cold for outsiders. A cute pampered girl before your mother and father. A little sulking kid towards your brother. You are like a mother towards young ones and also a respectful girl towards those who don't deserve it at all." She said looking at Sia showing slight anger while speaking the last sentence.
Ryan: "And also so ruthless towards such handsome hunks like me." he said while showing his arms in a way to show his well built biceps.
Sia's friends, who were sitting on the couch and chairs were looking at Sia who was standing before them crossing her arms.
Sia: "Kenzy why are you not speaking anything. All of them gave their views, what about you?"she said to Kenzy who was just looking at Sia unblinkingly.
Kenzy: "I am speechless." she said with still a intriguing look towards Sia.
Shaking her head she said;
"Okay I'll go and take bath, meanwhile you can busy yourself and you can use the other bathroom in corridor if you want to freshen up."
Neil: "Yeah sure, her majesty. We can never expect any answer from you." he said with a frown.

After dinner, Sia accompanied her friends to main gate and sent them off and after talking with her mother and father in their room for sometime, she went to her room and taking her guitar she sat on the window bed and started playing it. She was in deep thoughts when the door of her room opened slightly and Rish came inside and sat on a chair facing her. She noticed him but didn't turn or respond to him and continued playing the guitar. It was a melancholic and happy tune which she was playing on guitar. Like love which is always accompanied by pain and happiness and so the strumming was interpreting the same gestures. Rish was listening intriguingly and was looking at her with a deep look.
